Document Unreleased Only When Quitting


  • Subject: Document Unreleased Only When Quitting

I've been chasing down the source of this bug for two hours now, and with some cleverness in overriding retain and release I've been able to find that my document isn't being released when I'm quiting and that this is causing a hang in the app.

If I have an unsaved document and tell the app to quit, the standard sheet save changes appears. If I click "Don't Save" then the document:shouldClose:contextInfo: method is called in which I do some junk and then call [document close];. However after everything is done, the retain count is still at 2, and the app hangs in a run loop: <http://www.freaksw.com/Part3.png>

If instead of quitting the application with the unsaved document, I simply close the document window, the same exact code runs on my end (I verified this) but this time after clicking "Don't Save" the document is additionally released by an autorelease pool and is properly deallocated!

I have no idea what's causing this hang but here's what happen as far as retain and releasing goes in these two cases:



+/- RC The Caller ** WHEN QUITTING **
---------------------------------------------------------------------
+1 1 (accounting for initial alloc)
+1 2 [NSDocumentController addDocument]
+1 3 [NSAlert sheetDidEnd...]
+1 4 [NSDocument close] // ** Remains unbalanced
+1 5 [NSMutableArray removeObject:range:identical:] // nsdocument
-1 4 CFArrayReleaseValues // removing
-1 3 [NSMutableArray removeObject] // document
-1 2 [NSAlert sheetDidEnd...]




+/-   RC   The Caller        ** WHEN CLOSING **
---------------------------------------------------------------------
+1    1    (initial alloc)
+1    2    [NSDocumentController addDocument]
+1    3    [NSAlert sheetDidEnd...]
+1    4    [NSDocument close]
+1    5    [NSMutableArray removeObject:range:identical:]  // nsdocument
-1    4    CFArrayReleaseValues                            // removing
-1    3    [NSMutableArray removeObject]                   // document
-1    2    [NSAlert sheetDidEnd...]
-1    1    autoRelease pool
-1    0    dealloc



So why is it that only when quitting the application with an unsaved document that the document isn't actually released, and the application hangs in this termination cycle?


Any ideas are appreciated,
